How long does it take for Depo to wear off?

I had my last shot in February, and I was scheduled to have my shot last week. I got to the office and it said it was closed for some reason, and a lady came out and said to come back Monday. Well, I had a trip planned on Monday so I couldn't make it. Me and my boyfriend "did it" a couple of times during the trip. I came back to schedule the appointment, it was too late and they were not answering the phone. I call today, they are closed. Tomorrow they are closed. Worse news? The car is messed up so I can't go anywhere. So even if i do schedule an another appointment ASAP, i cant get there, and im afraid the car wont be fixed til next week. It's been about a week already. I hope I'll be safe for another week; or is it already too late?

They have you come in every 3 months but it doesn't fully come out for at least 4 but could take a full year to completely flush your system as my OB said. I had my last shot in August. Have been actively ttc since then. Had a Mc in February and still not pregnant. Depo takes a toll on your body. I'm sure you're fine. But if in case you had unprotected sex and don't want a baby. You could always take the morning after pill.
